Business description
Commercial pavement marking and striping business serving property managers, retailers, medical facilities, schools, municipalities, and paving contractors throughout the area. The company provides parking lot re-striping, new layout design, ADA compliance markings, fire lanes, sports courts, and interior facility markings — services that paving companies do not offer, making striping specialists a natural referral partner for every paving and sealcoating contractor in the market. Parking lot markings fade on a predictable cycle, creating a built-in recurring client base that returns without active solicitation. The owner manages commercial account relationships while a trained crew handles all field work. Low overhead, strong margins, and a clear path to scale by adding trucks and crews as commercial volume grows
